Just started coughing like crazy couple of days ago, general malaise, headaches, very slight fever, sore throat and just generally tired and out of sorts. At 69 he usually is hardly ever gets run down so this is unusual, especially his coughing is getting worse. On the off chance: vitamin C, D and Zinc but anyone remember in what dosage? Thanks for any help🤞

Thank you. I looked it up. It states Quercetin and Ivermectin. Are these available OTC do you know?
Quercetin is the is gun and zinc is the bullet. Quercetin opens the cell to let the zinc in. You can also get Ivermectin at Tractor Supply in a Horse paste. Works same as Quercetin.
Quercetin....Yes
Ivermectin...No (at least not in my area)
I use Cinchona Bark (available in many Health stores). Make tea using a tea ball, about 1 Tbs of Cinchona and 1 Tbs raw honey with very hot water. Let steep for at least 10 min.
Cinchona is a natural source of Quinine.

Tonic water for Quinine, I've been taking 3-4 oz. a day the last 2 years
I've made a habit of an afternoon Tonic...a jigger or two of "Bombay Sapphire" increases its palatability.
Cinchona is more of a Flu remedy.
Is this the same idea as pine needle tea? I have the ingredients for that.
Same idea...Note: "pine needle tea" is high in Vitamin C which can be destroyed by too high of heat.
Yes. Paste wormer at feed store. Plain ivermectin. Querc from health food store
